Toolboard HAT
-
Big shout out to @Zapta for the assistance with this as it was based on his open source design. @PCR - we looked at your design as well..
We decided to create a HAT (of sorts) for v1.2 of the toolboard. It's job is primarily to smooth the large-ish cooling fan we've chosen which does not react well through PCM. It also splits the thermostatic fan for the hotend to operate the cooling fan on the board itself.
The 4 plugs that are unused in the front are input/outputs for the CanBus. It will allow us to use the JST XH pigtails as jumpers to the board and then terminate our wiring using the larger JST PH connectors.
@T3P3Tony - this is why we don't want you to sunset v1.2 of the toolboard!

Here is one more photo showing the canbus wiring. We are really liking this method over soldering the pigtails.

Just curious: is your board open sourced, too?

@infiniteloop we’ll discuss- not against it at all but would want to spend a bit more time on the design and then have a few made for verification before posting based on the initial batch we received. We have a lot going on at the moment but will revisit soon!
